Those who keep themselves occupied by looking for inconsistencies in the Qur'an refer
to a man named "Haman" who is mentioned in the Qur'anic verses as one of
Pharaoh's men.

In the Torah, the name Haman is not used when the life of the Prophet Moses is quoted.
On the other hand, it is mentioned in the Gospel to refer to a helper of the Babylonian
king who lived 1,100 years after the Prophet Moses and persecuted the Jews.

Those who claim that the Prophet Muhammad wrote the Qur'an in the light of the Torah
and the Gospel also put forth the sophistry that he copied some of the subjects in the
Qur'an wrongly.

The ridiculousness of this claim became obvious 200 years ago when the Egyptian
hieroglyphs were deciphered and the name "Haman" was discovered.

Until then it had not been possible to read any of the writings or tablets written in
ancient Egyptian. The ancient Egyptian language and hieroglyphs had been present for many
thousands of years. However, with the spread of Christianity and its cultural influences
during the second and third centuries AD the ancient Egyptians forgot their religion as
well as the language, and the use of hieroglyphs came to a gradual stop. The year 394 AD
is the last known time when a hieroglyph was used. Afterwards this language was forgotten,
leaving nobody who could read and understand it. Until some 200 years ago.

The ancient Egyptian language was deciphered in 1799 with the discovery of a tablet
dated to 196 BC called the "Rosetta Stone". The unique nature of this tablet
came from the fact that it was written in three different forms of writing; hieroglyphics,
demotic (a simplified form of ancient Egyptian hieratic writing) and Greek. The ancient
Egyptian dialect was decoded with the help of the Greek version. A Frenchman named
Jean-Françoise Champollion completed the deciphering of the whole tablet. In this way, a
forgotten language and the history that it contained came back to life. This discovery
made it possible to research ancient Egyptian civilization, their beliefs and social life.

It also made it possible to acquire the vital piece of information we are now
discussing. The name "Haman" was in fact mentioned in old Egyptian tablets. It
was mentioned on a monument which now stands in the Hof Museum in Vienna, and in which the
closeness of Haman to the Pharaoh was emphasized. (Walter Wreszinski, Ägyptische
Inschriften aus dem K.K. Hof Museum in Wien, 1906, J. C. Hinrichs' sche Buchhandlung)

The dictionary "The People in the New Kingdom" refers to Haman as "the
head of the quarry workers". (Hermanne Ranke, Die style="mso-spacerun:
yes"> Augustin in Glückstadt, Band I, 1935. Band II, 1952)

This discovery brought to light a truly astonishing fact. Haman was, contrary to what
those who opposed the Qur'an claimed, really a man who had lived in Egypt during the
Prophet Moses' time and furthermore, just as stated in the Qur'an, he was close to the
Pharaoh and dealt with construction of sorts.

As a matter of fact, the Qur'anic verse that conveys how the Pharaoh requested Haman to
build a tower is in perfect unison with this archaeological finding:

Pharaoh said, 'Council, I do not know of any other god for you apart from me. Haman,
kindle a fire for me over the clay and build me a lofty tower so that perhaps I may be
able to climb up to Moses' god! I consider him a blatant liar.' (Surat al-Qasas: 38)

In conclusion, the discovery of the name Haman on ancient Egyptian tablets discredited
another claim made by those who strive to find inconsistencies in the Qur'anic verses.
Furthermore, the undeniable truth that the Qur'an is revealed by God is once again proven
without any doubt as the Qur'an miraculously conveyed historical information that could
not have been found and deciphered in the Prophet's time.
